Oleh karena itu, saya mendukung dan mengajak kepada berbagai pihak masyarakat kita dan dunia untuk bersama –sama membantu usaha mulia yang di laksanakan oleh BOS. Selamat atas semua keberhasilan dan sukses terus.

There are a number of other animal species in Samboja Lestari that have returned to this regenerating forest. Some of the animals you might spot on guided walks early morning and late afternoon through our Nature Trail (taking census data as you walk) are: eagles (3 different species), many other birds, lizards and snakes (blood pythons), small mammals (deer and pigs) and many amazing insects (walking sticks, beautiful butterflies, millipedes etc.). You might even spot wild primates newly arrived to the area such as gibbons, macaques (2 species), and proboscis and red leaf monkeys.
 
 
 
The Nature Trail follows a forest path 2 km in and out again from the Samboja Lodge (total 4 km). In order to ensure optimum wildlife viewing, the day begins at 6am as follows:
Wildlife Optimum Viewing Time
Birds and Mamals 5am to 10am (still too dark at 5am so we start at 6am)
4pm to 7pm (we will stop at 5pm)
Reptiles 9am to 11am
3pm to 5pm
Clipboards and binoculars will be provided to document wildlife observed. Breakfast will be provided for visitors to take along with them and the group will be returned to the Lodge at approximately 12.30pm for lunch and a brief rest before going back out again at 3pm or alternatively they may change their activity option.
